I don’t pick up the mail I don’t pick up the phone
I don’t answer the door I just ‘ soon be alone
I don’t keep this place up I just keep the lights out
I don’t live in this room I just rattle around
I’m just a ghost in this house I’m just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse I hold this home I’m just a whisper of smoke
I’m all that’s left of two hearts on fire That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul I’m just a ghost in this house
I don’t care if it rains I don’t care if it’s clear
I don’t mind staying in there’s another ghost here
He sits down in your chair and he shines with your light
And he lays down his head on your pillow at night
